What is a self-guided cabrio tour in Istria?

The tours are ideal for couples, friends, small families and anyone who wants a private, flexible and memorable way to explore Istria. They are especially suited for guests who enjoy scenic roads, open-air driving, beautiful views and experiences that feel personal rather than crowded.

How many people can join one tour?

Each tour is booked per vehicle and allows up to 4 people in one Mini Cooper Cabrio S. This makes it a great option for two people, a small group of friends or a family looking for a private Istrian road experience.

What car do we drive?
